From the co-founder of Pixar. This tech was also used by Carpenter to create the startling "Genesis Effect" sequence in "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan".
It surprised me.....how old something could be...though well animated.....I'm still confused...

360DPI! Bit of an insult for an historically important video. Surely there's an original resolution copy out there?

Computers of the time were NOT HD machines, and they couldnt even output directly onto film. They either had to be photographed directly off the monitor, or in Lucasfilms case use a laser device to 'draw' (composite) the CGI footage directly onto the film elements (which was how they did it for Young Sherlock Holmes iirc).

@@SparkyMK3 I do remember seeing the original on a TV Horizon programme, it was much better resolution. It will have been stored digitally when it was first made, hopefully there is a digital copy somewhere still. The video above is a poor quality analogue recording of the original digital video, hence the low res. Computers have been able to store digital information since before 1941. The first hard disk drive was shipped in 1957.

It's not clear what exactly you're wanting. This was made in 1980. Do you want 8K video for this or something? How will it enhance your appreciation of this pioneering work if it was shown in high def? Would you have more insight than before or see something you haven't already seen in the original content?

@@SanjaySingh-oh7hv I think you're confusing digital with digital scans of analogue presentations of originally digital data. It was made as digital, it should be shown in the original resolution, not some 360DPI analogue recording of the original. However even if shown as an analogue, I saw it first time and it was much clearer. In any case your point about 8K is irrelevant to digital info, digital is binary - either on or off, not some 360 DPI or even 8K blur in between.

I think the movie was printed to 16mm film for the show at SIGGRAPH. Not sure about its native resolution, but film was relatively forgiving, even after blowing something up optically. Our first self-built in-house computer/HDD rack/frame-buffer/film printer combo back in '83 could already output at 1200 lines.
